Chapter 307 Old Fox vs. Little Fox

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After completing the post-editing of "Charlotte Troubles", Xia Fan returned to the company.

    Although he felt that the situation of being too involved in the drama was indeed difficult to solve, Xia Fan thought about it carefully and felt that the matter was not serious. At least he had realized that everyone was "too involved in the drama".

    In the next few days, Xia Fan temporarily had no acting appointments. The movie version of "Yanjing Love Story" is scheduled to be released at the end of the year, and the premiere of "Charlotte Trouble" will be in the middle of next year. He began to prepare a new single in earnest  matters.

    ¡°In the past few months, I have been so busy as a director, screenwriter, and acting, so I have no time to think about a new single.

    He remembered his agreement with Penguin Music to release another mini-album this year. This time Xia Fan had even thought of a name, so let¡¯s call it ¡°I¡¯m Very Busy¡±.

    Yes, it has the same name as the song "I'm Very Busy" by Jay Chou in his previous life.

    In 2007, Jay Chou was very busy, so he playfully named the album "I'm Very Busy". At this moment, Xia Fan was also very busy, so he followed the same example.

    As for the three songs in the mini-album, Xia Fan also decided to choose from the album "I'm Very Busy".  After all, the overall quality of Jay Jay's previous album was very high, with several highly popular songs.

    However, the two golden songs "Blue and White Porcelain" and "The Longest Movie" have already been released as singles by Xia Fan, and they can only be found slowly in the inventory.

    After careful study, Xia Fan first finalized one of the songs, "Dandelion Promise," and the remaining two songs will be decided later when there is more time. After all, the date agreed with Penguin Music is still some time away.

    When he was sorting out the songs, his manager Stefanie Lai found him.

    "Mr. Zhao Kang, the marketing director of China Music, wants to talk to you."

    "Oh?" Xia Fan raised his head and nodded, "Okay."

    Before, a senior executive there had contacted me, and my reply was very straightforward: "The contract is only for one year, what's the fuss!"

    The other party was helpless and knew that there was no point in putting on airs to vent emotions, so he only left the sentence "I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future."

    A few minutes later, Xia Fan received a call from an unknown number, which was Zhao Kang.

    Mr. Zhao is still a little puzzled: "Why sell the exclusive copyright to Penguin? Our price is not low."

    ??

    "" Mr. Zhao had no choice but to emphasize, "We are from a state-owned enterprise background, so we have to have some airs. We cannot have the same style as Penguin."

    This is just like Xia Fan¡¯s judgment in advance. Based on the different backgrounds and styles of the two companies, he made a targeted choice.

    Maybe China Music thinks that if it buys its own exclusive song copyright, it will only occupy more market share, but that¡¯s it, and there will be no large-scale actions in the future.

    But Penguin Music is different. If you spend 70 million real money, you must make good use of it, otherwise you will not be able to live up to the way this company has always behaved.

    First, there was overwhelming publicity, and then various membership packages such as green diamond and red diamond were launched, and Xia Fan's songs were crazily promoted through various channels.

    ¡° If this 70 million is not converted into a value of hundreds of millions, that is definitely not Penguin¡¯s usual style.

    After Xia Fan figured this out, he sold the first-year copyright to the other party to see what tricks Penguin could come up with.

    But he didn¡¯t want to offend the other platform too badly, so he said: ¡°Actually, Penguin¡¯s offer was higher, but I gave up one of the terms.¡±

    "What are the terms?" Zhao Kang asked quickly.

    "Starting from next year, although you 'temporarily' don't have the rights to play the previous songs" Xia Fan deliberately raised the pronunciation of the word "temporarily", "But within next year, my new single will be on your  The platform will still publish, and this is what I fought for.¡±

    Zhao Kang¡¯s face softened a lot: ¡°That¡¯s good, Mr. Xia must also understand that once Penguin Music becomes the dominant one, it will not be a good thing for you copyright-eating singers.¡±

    He is also an old fox. From a few simple conversations, he vaguely guessed Xia Fan's purpose.

    First, the other party does not want to be the only one, so they can wait for the price and sell it.

    Second, Xia Fan wants to strike a balance between the two music platforms.

      And the second point is that few people did this in the previous Chinese music scene.  Because in the past, the song copyrights of many kings and queens were in the hands of companies. These companies basically only cared about immediate profits. They were eager to package the song copyrights for five or ten years in one go and make a lot of money. They didn't care whether there would be huge floods in the future.

    A small number of original singers will occasionally have a few amazing works, but the overall quality will be uneven. In addition, when they were newcomers, they were dug out by some entertainment companies with contracts, and the price sold to the platform was not very high.

    But when it came to Xia Fan, he not only provided all the lyrics and music, which were of high quality, but also had the absolute copyright on the songs, which caused the song copyright fees to skyrocket.

    He is only 24 years old, still very young, his creative power is at its peak, and he still has enough time to produce more excellent works.

    ??This is something that neither music platform will doubt.

    In just a short moment, several thoughts flashed through Zhao Kang¡¯s mind.

    ¡°Mr.

    Three years?

    You said three years, just three years?

    ??

    He deliberately paused for a while to arouse the other party's interest.

    "The popular little girl Chen Shiying, she also graduated from the Conservatory of Music. She has several good masterpieces and has many fans and fans. You should have won her exclusive copyright, right?"

    "We got it!" Zhao Kang was a little surprised, "Is this what Teacher Xia meant?"

    Those so-called masterpieces by Chen Shiying were actually all written by Xia Fan.

    "Yes, after all, I am a musician. I wrote her songs, so of course she is willing to follow my suggestions."

    "This time, I really want to thank Teacher Xia."

    Zhao Kang spoke enthusiastically, but in his heart he cursed the other party for being such a cunning little fox.

    "Teacher Xia, I have something to trouble you about. It's about Zhang Xuehan" The old fox also revealed his true purpose.
